The Expect module is a successor of Comm.pl and a descendent of Chat.pl. It more closely resembles the Tcl Expect language than its predecessors. It does not contain any of the networking code found in Comm.pl. I suspect this would be obsolete anyway...

"Expect::Simple" is a wrapper around the "Expect" module which should suffice for simple applications. It hides most of the "Expect" machinery; the "Expect" object is available for tweaking if need be. Generally, one starts by creating an Expect::Sim...

Test::Expect is a module for automated driving and testing of terminal-based programs. It is handy for testing interactive programs which have a prompt, and is based on the same concepts as the Tcl Expect tool. As in Expect::Simple, the Expect object...

This module is simply a wrapper around the scp call. The primary difference between this module and *Net::SCP* is that you may send a password programmatically, instead of being forced to deal with interactive sessions. USAGE Net::SCP::Expect->new(*o...

A lot of people use the filename as a place to insert metadata for the file. This module has some routines to help with treating those filenames. This code takes into consideration what human beings would name files as. People often expect a space to...

This module encapsulates the open3() function call (see IPC::Open3) and its associated filehandles. This makes it easy to maintain multiple interactive command sessions, such as multiple persistent 'ssh' and/or 'rsh' sessions, within the same perl sc...

"P" is a combined printf, sprintf & say in 1 routine. It was designed to save on typing and undef checking when printing strings. It saves on in that you don't have constantly insert or move "newline"s ("\n"). If you change a string into a formatted ...

Once upon a time I needed a basic text-mode GUI framework to implement some nice-looking interfaces for the Linux console. Didn't find any around, so necessity became the mother of PerlVision, which kept growing as I kept adding more goodies, so now ...

This simple, text-oriented user interface gives access to some Topic Map functions. This program is mainly thought for quick prototyping and testing Topic Maps and/or TM software, not so much to provide eye-candy. There are two modi operandi: batch W...

JE, short for JavaScript::Engine (imaginative, isn't it?), is a pure-Perl JavaScript engine. Here are some of its strengths: - Easy to install (no C compiler necessary*) - The parser can be extended/customised to support extra (or fewer) language fea...

If you're a developer of multiple projects like me, you'll find yourself needing to switch between multiple different Version Control Systems (VCSs). After I've worked on one project using, say, SVN for an hour I may need to switch to a different one...

++

Using the Sx package is pretty simple. At the minimum, you 'use Sx;' To actually have X windows pop open and such, you need to do the following: 1) To get everything started, you should call OpenDisplay(). If OpenDisplay() returns a non-zero value, i...
